Photos

These are the gems, I’m certain. My favorite (most common) feedback from clients/friends is this: “pictures that were initially looked over, a year later are now my very favorite”. It’s so much easier for me to look at a picture of you and instantly appreciate it. We are our strongest critics after all. In my experience, time has a way of deepening our appreciation for the person we are, seeing the person we were with a softer heart. These pictures that show the real smiles are the ones that belong on the walls. #amiright

Spent last light drinking IPAs and watching these two in a tiny, lukewarm hot tub right off the parking lot at the Howard Johnson no less happy than they’d have been at any Ritz-Carlton. A good lesson in simple pleasures •

Weekend catch-up time is totally a thing - and has me feeling like I could take on anything. 💪Also, hot tea in this @swigbyom is just about the best thing ever!

Small batches. This is how Aura Leaf handcrafts your ringslings. Each one takes about an hour (or 2 or 3 if a certain toddler decides naps are no longer in her repertoire). But please don’t be discouraged if you miss out on a certain drop or launch! I am always listening and bringing back, to the best of our abilities, your favourites. Thank you for supporting us and sending us your amazing stash photos. Like this goddess @little_lady_maya and her impeccable taste 👌🏽✨ #slowfashion

Long caption alert:
Had brunch yesterday with a few ladies that I love and it brought to mind this wonderful poem by Idelette McVicker, as they all exemplify the characteristics described. Excerpts below... Let us be women who carry each other.
Let us be women who give from what we have.
Let us be women who leap to do the difficult things, the unexpected things and the necessary things.
Let us be women who live for Peace.
Let us be women who breathe Hope.
Let us be women who create beauty.
Let us be women who Love.
Let us rise to the questions of our time.
Let us speak to the injustices in our world.
Let us move the mountains of fear and intimidation.
Let us shout down the walls that separate and divide.
Let us fill the earth with the fragrance of Love.
Let us be women who Love.
Let us listen for those who have been silenced.
Let us honour those who have been devalued.
Let us say, Enough! with abuse, abandonment, diminishing and hiding.
Let us not rest until every person is free and equal.
Let us be women who Love.
Let us be women who are savvy, smart, and wise.
Let us be women who take courage and sing the song in our hearts.
Let us be women who say, Yes to the beautiful, unique purpose seeded in our souls.
Let us be women who call out the song in another’s heart.
Let us be women who Love.
Let us be women who Love, in spite of fear.
Let us be women who Love, in spite of our stories.
Let us be women who Love loudly, beautifully, Divinely.
Let us be women who Love.

Saturday sweets 😍 these Mediterranean inspired chocolates are almost too pretty to eat, all different flavors representing this part. You already know I love all the colorful azulejos around the Spanish towns & I wouldn’t mind a few of these designs around our home ✨

This is not just a throwback photo of my trip to Harry Potter World. 🤓 This is a PSA to inform you that Lego is bringing back their Wizarding World sets and I can't even handle life right now!!! #takeallmymoney
